The Romanesque church of Saint-Hilaire was built in the 11th and 12th centuries in the shape of a Latin cross. It is the only domed rural Romanesque church in the département. The barrel-vaulted choir is richly decorated with frescoes, the oldest dating from the late 11th century. Desecrated in 1936 and abandoned until the 1980s, it underwent a major restoration thanks to patronage, and was listed as a Monument Historique in 1973. Its eight bays have been fitted with contemporary stained-glass windows by local painter and enameller Léa Sham's. To continue financing the restoration of this remarkable edifice, concerts and exhibitions are regularly organized by the Patrimoines et Cultures association, which now brings this majestic site to life.
